A work session to discuss the decision of a Final Subdivision, Amended Planning Board Steep Slope Permit, Amended Wetland/Watercourse Permit, and Tree Removal Permit application involving a proposed Conservation Subdivision development.

Consistent with the Findings Statement (dated 8/10/2022, amended 11/24/2025) and adopted by the Town Board (TB 18-02), the Applicant proposes to subdivide lots 7.530-320-1..SE and 7.530-320-1..SG into a total of 126 individual lots for the purpose of constructing 113 single-family homes, while preserving 25.2 acres of open space. An easterly 14.2-acre parcel is proposed to be offered for dedication to the Town for use as an extension of East Rumbrook Park. The Applicant proposes two (2) new curb cuts on Dobbs Ferry Road, the easternmost of which is proposed to be full-movement, while the westernmost is proposed to be right-in and right-out only.

ITEMS FOR PUBLIC HEARING & PUBLIC DISCUSSION
Individuals may submit comments on public hearing items via email to publichearing@greenburghny.gov, or regular mail to Town of Greenburgh, attn: CD&C, 177 Hillside Avenue, Greenburgh, NY, 10607, within the open written record period and such comments will be made part of the record.
The Planning Board is a group of volunteers appointed by the Town Board to evaluate land use applications in accordance with the Town Code. When property owners seek to develop their land or make improvements via subdivision or if they will be disturbing an area with a steep slope or within a wetland, watercourse or adjacent, regulated buffer area, they must apply to the Planning Board for approval. It is the job of the Planning Board to balance the rights of land owners while ensuring the adverse impacts to the surrounding community are minimized. Decisions on adjustments to the proposed plan are based on factual evidence and reviewed for consistency with our Town code and Comprehensive Plan. This evidence primarily comes from applicants and their advisors, site visits conducted by Planning Board members, and input from Town staff, the appropriate Fire District, and the public as part of the public hearing process. The relative popularity of an application is not a factor in Planning Board decisions. Decisions are based on the facts presented.
